CYA House Softball offers spring (March-June) and fall (September-November) seasons. Teams play both internal and external games. Our focus is on providing girls with a fun, inclusive experience that emphasizes sportsmanship, respect, and teamwork. All girls, regardless of skill level, have the opportunity to play in every game.

NEW THIS SEASON! CYA Softball is introducing a House+ program, an enhanced program for players seeking a more competitive experience. This program supplements our traditional house league, providing advanced play and interleague doubleheaders against other skilled teams. House+ caters to those who desire a higher level of competition without the full-time commitment of a travel team.

Eligibility:

1. Registered player on a CYA softball house team.
2. Successful tryout selection.
3. Payment of a $90 fee for uniforms and doubleheaders.
